Such a great place, husband and I were very recent 1st time patients. All the staff was so helpful and gave great recommendations. Great selections, will definitely be coming back again.

Great location. Friendly staff. A decent selection of meds for a variety of ailments. They do not sell wax or oils, but this is because the city isn't properly educated on the topic.

this was my second dispensary and i wish it was my first. this place was welcoming and extremely friendly. i struggle with social anxiety and after only a few minutes in here, i felt relaxed enough like i was just talking a friend! my bud tender, jeff, said he was kinda new but sure didn’t seam like it. he was very knowledgeable and took his time with me. despite the drive from me to this place, i will for sure be coming back not just for the experience but also the quality of bud and wax that ranges in price from affordable to not but the quality seems to be in everything :)

This was my first time here and will be back again. My budtender was Luna. She did a fantastic job helping me find exactly what I wanted. I highly recommend Lake Effect because the staff and quality of products are like no other.

I drive to this place from Lansing. I like going somewhere that has a large, fair priced selection. I like that it does not feel like a trap house. Good welcoming feeling when at Lake Effect.

After waiting nearly 4 years, we finally have a dispensary in the Kalamazoo/Portage area... and it's wonderful! In fact, I would say Lake Effect is the preeminent medical dispensary in the whole of Southwest Michigan. While they limit their stock to bud, the wide variety of strains is unparalleled for the region (and they have a nifty iPad you can order from if that's up your alley). All of the products are thoroughly tested and described on placards in great detail (THC content, cannabinoids, effects, etc.). The staff is friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and display genuine enthusiasm in their work. The best thing, however, is their prices... With grams ranging from $9-$20, they remain competitive on a statewide level in terms of price (i.e., no regional markups). I am delighted with this dispensary and hope they continue to operate unfettered by the City of Portage. They provide important, much needed care for patients in the area- who no longer have to drive over an hour away- and appear to be an upstanding member of the local business community.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Luna did a great job helping me find what I was looking for. The building could use a bit of an update, but I'll definitely be back.

My first visit to any dispensary, everyone is helpful and friendly. The wait was less than I expected for a Saturday and Dave was very informative and helpful. Product is great! Worth a little drive.
